[Juristonia]

You people are killing the take a penny leave a penny business.

[Ifreann]

Is there anything millenials won't kill?

This is why we need gun millennial control, now.

[Genivaria]

Abortions.

[Miami Shores]

Abortions.

I am anti abortion, pro gay rights, they should not be discriminated against personally, at housing, work or public place, but no gay adoptions, churches should have a right to admit them or not based on their religious beliefs, but they can form their own churches and admit or not admit anyone they choose based on their religious beliefs.

[Juristonia]

..Okay.

[Chan Island]

..Okay.

So I just looked at this page, saw that and thought "the previous page must have something silly on the other side to make that happen".

And thus it was so.

Also, death to pennies! Should have been abolished 10 years ago.

[Major-Tom]

I feel like every few months, I hear about the hypothetical disbanding of pennies, and I'm always all for it. But it's such a low-tier issue that within minutes, I always completely forget about the very idea,

Keep up the fight, comrade! We will storm the barricades of the penny lovers and finally disband those tiny, economically harmful and monetarily near-worthless discs forever, once and for all!

What fight? Uh, right, yeah, pennies.

Yeah, to hell with them.

Will the elimination of the penny get rid of the stupid practice of advertising things at $1.99?

[Ifreann]

Will the elimination of the penny get rid of the stupid practice of advertising things at $1.99?

No.

[Valrifell]

Will the elimination of the penny get rid of the stupid practice of advertising things at $1.99?

Technically yes, but they'd move to $1.95

[Corrian]

Technically yes, but they'd move to $1.95

Of course they would. Because just fucking pricing it at $2 makes too much since.

[Galloism]

Of course they would. Because just fucking pricing it at $2 makes too much since.

There's a psychological effect. A lot of people read "$1.99" or "$1.95" and internally process it at "$1", when $2 is more appropriate.

It happens with big ticket items too - a $41,000 car doesn't look $1,000 more expensive than $39,995 car. To the average person, it looks $10,000 more expensive.

I once read that people found a dress priced $339 or some such to be a more lucrative deal than the same dress priced at $300 (or at least more people bought or considered buying the $339 thing)

[Shrillland]

With only 10 minutes to go, the candidates are now being introduced.

Yeah, I remember hearing that's why they do it. I still hate it.

I hate that it works.

[Shrillland]

Round Three...Begin!

[Dresderstan]

Round Three...Begin!

You mean fight?

[Soudar]

They are starting right away

[United States of Devonta]

Lets go!!

Will Bernie and Warren fight or will they try to team up again?

[Shrillland]

Round Three...Begin!

You mean fight?

Nay, just debate...and I'll probably be absent for a good chunk of things. I'll watch it later.

[Major-Tom]

Dammit, I have to TA for most of the debate.

If I get back and see that Yang didn't launch YangBucks out of a cannon, I'm going to be thoroughly disappointed.
